In the Autumn of 1967, the MkII range - less the discontinued 3.8 - morphed into the interim 240 and 340 models intended to bridge the gap prior to the launch of the XJ6 in September 1968. The 240 continued as a budget model until April 1969; its price of £1364 being only £20 more expensive than the first 2.4 in 1956. Output was increased from 120 bhp at 5,750 rpm to 133 bhp at 5,500 rpm and torque was increased. There was a slight reshaping of the rear body and slimmer bumpers with over-riders were fitted. The economies of the new models included replacement of leather upholstery with Ambla and tufted carpet on the floor.
This RHD, manual overdrive example, finished in Old English White with Red interior, was originally supplied to Isle of Man. Sitting on chrome wire wheels, it is said to have benefited from a partial respray twelve years ago and to possess "very good" bodywork, engine, transmission and interior whilst the paintwork is said to be "good" overall. Offered with Swansea V5, Heritage Certificate and dating letter from Jaguar Cars, the odometer currently registers some 95,000 miles.
